The learning curve is quick on this unit. I do want to thank PFloyd for the input info for my DX6i. It did make it a lot easier to keep it off the walls and off the ceiling! As soon as it gets above 25 I am going outside. But first I may just run it around in my garage. I really like the possibilities of going to 100%. Just going to wait a bit and do a lot of flying in the house. This is a real sturdy unit. I bought 6 packs of blades figuring I would need them. Lucky so far. So thanks for the information and all the support to make this a fun project/hobby!

And there I was....standing outside in 40 degrees flying my mqx. With a promise not to get it above my shoulder. Yeah right!

About three minutes later it was over my garage headed East!. Fortunately into the big field behind the house. I found it upside down of course. Just like a slice of bread with jam that will always land face down on the floor. Got it home. In great shape!

Five minutes later one of the bearings failed. I was done. I figured I had pushed my luck enough. I am glad that I got me a "trainer" unit prior to spending big bucks.
